=head2 SYNOPSIS

    use JSON::PP;
    use Playwright;

    my $handle = Playwright->new();
    my $browser = $handle->launch( headless => JSON::PP::false, type => 'chrome' );
    my $page = $browser->newPage();
    my $res = $page->goto('http://google.com', { waitUntil => 'networkidle' });
    my $frameset = $page->mainFrame();
    my $kidframes = $frameset->childFrames();

=head2 DESCRIPTION

Perl interface to a lightweight node.js webserver that proxies commands runnable by Playwright.
Currently understands commands you can send to all the playwright classes defined in api.json.

See L<https://playwright.dev/#version=master&path=docs%2Fapi.md&q=>
for what the classes do, and their usage.

There are two major exceptions in how things work versus the documentation.

=head3 Selectors

The selector functions have to be renamed from starting with $ for obvious reasons.
The renamed functions are as follows:

=over 4

=item $ => select

=item $$ => selectMulti

=item $eval => eval

=item $$eval => evalMulti

=back

These functions are present as part of the Page, Frame and ElementHandle classes.

=head3 Scripts

The evaluate() and evaluateHandle() functions can only be run in string mode.
To maximize the usefulness of these, I have wrapped the string passed with the following function:

    const fun = new Function (toEval);
    args = [
        fun,
        ...args
    ];

As such you can effectively treat the script string as a function body.
The same restriction on only being able to pass one arg remains from the upstream:
L<https://playwright.dev/#version=master&path=docs%2Fapi.md&q=pageevaluatepagefunction-arg>

You will have to refer to the arguments array as described here:
L<https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Functions/arguments> 

=head1 CONSTRUCTOR

=head2 new(HASH) = (Playwright)

Creates a new browser and returns a handle to interact with it.

=head3 INPUT

    debug (BOOL) : Print extra messages from the Playwright server process

=head1 METHODS

=head2 launch(HASH) = Playwright::Browser

The Argument hash here is essentially those you'd see from browserType.launch().  See:
L<https://playwright.dev/#version=v1.5.1&path=docs%2Fapi.md&q=browsertypelaunchoptions>

There is an additional "special" argument, that of 'type', which is used to specify what type of browser to use, e.g. 'firefox'.

=cut

sub launch ($self, %args) {
    #TODO coerce types based on spec
    my $msg = Playwright::Util::request ('POST', 'session', $self->{port}, $self->{ua}, type => delete $args{type}, args => [\%args] );
    return $Playwright::mapper{$msg->{_type}}->($self,$msg) if (ref $msg eq 'HASH') && $msg->{_type} && exists $Playwright::mapper{$msg->{_type}};
    return $msg;
}

=head2 quit, DESTROY

Terminate the browser session and wait for the Playwright server to terminate.

Automatically called when the Playwright object goes out of scope.

=cut

sub quit ($self) {
    Playwright::Util::request ('GET', 'shutdown', $self->{port}, $self->{ua} ); 
    return waitpid($self->{pid},0);
}

sub DESTROY ($self) {
    $self->quit();
}

sub _start_server($port, $debug) {
    $debug   = $debug   ? '-d' : '';

    $ENV{DEBUG} = 'pw:api' if $debug;
    my $pid = fork // confess("Could not fork");
    if ($pid) {
        print "Waiting for port to come up..." if $debug;
        Net::EmptyPort::wait_port($port,30) or confess("Server never came up after 30s!");
        print "done\n" if $debug;
        return $pid;
    }

    exec( $server_bin, "-p", $port, $debug);
}
